Bio

Inspired by my background and social inequalities around me, I am determined to support inclusive development in Nigeria. I support public and private institutions to address issues around healthcare, good governance, quality education and further drive progress in achieving united nation sustainable development goals (UN SDGs) for the fast five years. To promote health care, I worked with Breakthrough ACTION, Nigeria, driving social and behavior change, access to family planning services and supporting children immunization across many primary health care hospitals in Bauchi State which record massive increase in accessing those services from 27% in 2016 to 42% in 2022. In education, I successfully organized a TEDx event last year in Bauchi State. The event has transformed perception and inspired actions within the state. One of the speakers we hosted, displayed potential that earned her appointment as Education Commissioner by the State Government. In good governance, I currently volunteer with Transparency Center, Kaduna as a project lead, Shin Kun Shaida? A project that drive citizens engagement in governance process. I also serve as SDGs CDS group president, and currently serving with KADSEMA as Personal Assistant to the Executive Secretary.

I'm passionate about
